Rust Extension Example
This is an example of a Rust extension for Python, using PyO3 and rust-numpy. See the blog post for a more detailed walkthrough.
Files
create-msgpack.py - script to create the input msgpack file
process-empty.py - script that demonstrates the (de-)serialization cost of big NumPy arrays through process workers
rust-ext-example.py - script that demonstrates the main example
src/ - Rust source code
Setup
Create a venv and install from requirements.txt
. Then run create-msgpack.py
to create the input msgpack file.
For the Rust extension, run (cd take_iter && maturin develop --release)
. This will build the extension and install it in the venv.
Run python rust-ext-example.py
to run the example.
